DEATH OF ROBERT p. DODGE.
The Assessor OF the District OF COlum.
bia Dies Of Heart Disease.

It was hoped and expected that when Mr.. Rob1
P. Dodge, assessor OF the District OF Columbia re-
turned from Old Point Comfort, where he had
been to recuperate his health that his condition
would improve, but since he came back last Tues
day he has been growing weaker all the time, and
he did at 2:30 O'Clock this morning, at his resi-.
dence, corner Sth and Q streets, at the age OF
fiction Of the heart.
The deceased was the son OF Francis Dodge an
extensive merchant, who was honorably identified
with the District from the commencement OF the
century. Robert p. Dodge was born in George.
town on the lst OF September, 1917. He graduated
at Princeton College, and also as an engineer IN
Kentucky, and was offered aprofessorship OF math.
ematicS In that State at the age OF nineteen,
but preferred employment on the Chesapeake and
OHIO Canal, among the mountains or Maryland
He subsequently settled In his nave town devoting
himself TO the manufacture of Hour. and carried
on an extensive milling establishment on Seneca
Greek, In Montgomery County, and afterward
with Gen. Lorenzo Thomas, in Georgetown. During
the war OF the rebellion he was appointed pay.
master In the army, and received the title OF
colonel, performing much hard work for the pub
lie service. He Was subsequently appointed the
treasurer and assessor OF the District Government
and When the two positions were separated he
became the assessor OF the District as the office
has since existed. His death occurred after pro
longed illness, In spite OF which he insisted upon
performing his official duties. About two weeks
ago he was advised TO visit Fortress Monroe
where it was supposed the sea air would benefit
him; but 1t did him no good, and on his return
nome nus CONDITION became worse, when his hearl
seemed TO be seriously affected and he died mos,
peacefully.
He was man OF superior abilities, and noted
for his manly qualities For many years he was
veStryman In st. Johns church, and was univer
sally beloved for his nberality, gentle manners
pure Christian character, and rare benevolence.
The funeral will be held at Oak Hill chapel on
Monday afternoon at 5 o'clock.
Dr. VIM. Tindall, secretary Of the Board OF Dis
trfct Commissioners, says: "Mr. Dodge'S life was
one of impressive probity and inspired absolute
"A
duties OF the Office he held and his dilgent appl.
cation to his work was largely the cause OF his
breaking down."
The Commissioners have adopted resolutions OF
regret and direct that the District Offices be closed

LONDON, May 2l.-Freycinet having found the
task OF forming a ministry too hard for, him Ia.
terest centers for the moment on Clenenceau.
The latters hesitation 10 take Office is abundantly
accounted forby his inability 10 ful his colonial
and financial pledges by abandoning Tonquin
and imposing an income tax. Freyclnet's failure
is another triumph for Boulanger, who falsifes
the proyerb that there is no necessary man. News

any such spontaneous show or public favor has
been manifested since this crisis. Ttsegrams are
raining down upon the members OF the chamber
